theme, "PLANTED" where he talked about the BASIC steps to become a saint.
The bishop emphasized that the Social Networking portal is like the
Eucharist.
"For us to easily remember about it, I will put it in this way: Log In,
celebrate the Eucharist every Sunday. It is like a portal where we, not only God
only let God enter our hearts and lives but us, entering and exploring God's
infinite goodness", explained Buzon.
Buzon continued, "another is Post, keep HIM updated. Pray and thank Him every
day, especially when you wake up in the morning and before you sleep at night.
Faith is a relationship with God. Keep your connection alive!"
Buzon also encouraged the youth to use their account properly and advised to
follow the 10 commandments.
"And lastly, Will it or Want it. You, the Youth are hungry to become
'saints'. You or we hunger for God and without that 'willpower' to be a saint,
it won't just happen", added Buzon.
"Login, Update, Use your account properly, and WILL IT", he lastly said.
Bishop Patricio Buzon was the one who graced the closing mass to end the
day's session.
You must be faithful in your relationship
"Are you still faithful in your relationship?" This was the question of
Bishop Patricio Abella Buzon asked during his homily.
Bishop Buzon stressed that "Faith is love with trust".
"Faith is not just 'believing', but having a personal relationship with God.
It is loving only one God, through all the years of your life with all your
heart, mind, strength, and soul. And it is trusting God that he will never let
anyone harm you, and you trusting him to know that he loves you so much", said
Buzon
Buzon added that there is a magic formula on how to have faith.
He shared that Love + Trust is equals Faith.

"In this world, no material thing is free anymore. The only thing free now is
the air we breathe and our FREEdom", said Bishop Baylon.
According also to the bishop, Christ was the one who gaved freedom as a gift
and respects the way we use it.
The bishop continued, "He gave us the freedom to choose and to decide for
ourselves, to know what is right from wrong. He wants us to learn and so Christ
respects our decision on what to do with the gifts that He gaved".
Baylon added that the most important thing is 'love', together with the power
of choice and freedom. He also reminded the young people to follow Christ and
meet Him in daily living.
Bishop Baylon graced the opening mass yesterday for the celebration of the
National Youth Day.
NYD opening took place in Don Bosco Technical Institute, Makati, yesterday.
